Training: Day 8

Plan: 40 mins easy, 40 mins steady, 40 mins marathon pace
Reality: 25 mins very easy with four dogs, 90 mins steady with some almost marathon pace!
Significant events: extremely stiff back, right hip & hamstrings, took a long time to loosen up. Also very sore throat - I think dehydrated. Ankle intermittently painful.
Comments: Back problems causing concern, have now got a proper back pack, hopefully this will eliminate the problem. Starting to feel very nervous about running 100k. Do not feel confident about completing the distance.
